Ahurac's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Turmoil]

The track clips, I recommend you to use sidechain and to mixdown your tracks. Otherwise the melody is kinda cool. You should use transition FX to do fake-outs in the song.
Keep it up,

thanks :)

[Inspire (Colin8tor)]

It definitely lacks of sub frequencies and basses. Also the drums samples are pretty cheap, try to got some at Cymatics, they have good ones. It's missing sidechain, a really important effect that ducks the volume of every single non-drums element when the kick hits so the track can breathe better.

~ Ahurac

Colin8tor responds:

Thanks for the feedback! I'll go check cymatics out.

Couldn't find the song on YouTube, what's the name of it?

TheDirtz responds:

The music is not on youtube. Do you want her?

[Upcoming Brainstorm - Another Boulevard]

The mix has some issues, but the song is kinda cool. The vocals were recorded with pretty trash quality, I guess it's not your fault but they are barely hearable. Also it has too much reverb imo.

[{Rooldook} Electrical Node]

Pretty good track, but it feels empty sometimes. FamiTracker is really well used, I must say gg. The melodic stuff is awesome, although sometimes it sounds not on point on the rhythmic aspect (only sometimes).
Keep it up,

~ Ahurac

Rooldook responds:

Thank you! I used only Famitracker before I uploaded "Startup".

[_0-2]

Pretty cool. The track structure and melody is a bit random, and the audio is short, but still kinda nice.

~ Ahurac

[Rhythm Heaven - Remix 8 (FamiTracker Cover)]

Awesome pattern. The FamiTracker is well used. I don't really have anything to say, except the audio is pretty quiet, try to crank it up with normalization with maybe Audacity, it can be cool.

~ Ahurac

glotch responds:

yeah i was worried about the volume. i converted it from mono to stereo with ffmpeg in the vain hope that my video editor wouldnt wash out the noise channel for youtube, and that made it quieter, but i was also worried about potential quality loss if i reamplified it. i might try to amplify it now that i know it's a bit of a turn off, or just re-export it in mono. glad you liked it!

edit: i cranked up the volume as well as a re-export, i hope it's better now!

[Instrumental Rap Toxicidad]

Where did you take this?

[GrassHopper]

The melody is really random and the lead very dry. Tho you thought about putting a sub, which is really cool. The drum beat is not that bad but the samples are pretty cheap. Also the song is pretty short.
One last piece of advice: you should not ask for scouting ^^'

~ Ahurac

[No streassing...]

Where did you take the song?
